SPA Modeler

Gentlemen, good afternoon! Got an update for you—

I have painted the engine, assembled it, and treated it with a dark brown wash. Have a look at the results:





I’m pretty happy with how this is coming out so far.

My lead wire arrived in the mail on a Friday, so I’ll be starting the wiring real soon. Very much looking forward to that, I’m excited!

A lot of detail in that tiny engine, can't wait to see you have it wired up.

Nice work. All the best!

Very nicely done Kenny!

Thanks folks!

I have been very carefully wiring this little guy up in spare moments here and there this week. Here’s the progress:



I like this fly-tying wire quite a lot and I’m glad I took Joh ‘s advice and tried it. It’s very small, nicely malleable, but more obedient than the wire I get from gutted coaxial cables.

I’ll be finishing this job up over the course of the next couple of days.

going to have to stop at the pro shop and see if I can't find some of that wire it looks to do the job perfectly.

HAHA! It’s All good, Bruce. All good.

Wow....
